Schloss Rothestein, Neo-Gothic castle in Kleinvach, Germany
Schloss Rothestein stands atop a red sandstone cliff, displaying architectural elements influenced by English design across its substantial structure and halls.
The foundation stone was laid in 1891 by Baron Adolph von und zu Gilsa, replacing the medieval fortress Osterburg that previously occupied the site.
The castle functions as an official registry office for Bad Sooden-Allendorf, conducting civil wedding ceremonies in its dedicated ceremonial room for up to 100 guests.
The castle features two festival halls accommodating 200 seated guests, modern presentation equipment, and parking facilities for 40 vehicles.
During World War II, French prisoners of war resided in the castle, working as agricultural helpers and cooks for the residing family.
